East Carolina Pirates Nickname and Mascot

ecu1Mascot, Nickname and Traditions

East Carolina University fans are excited about the Pirates sports program that not only has a proud tradition, but one that is becoming dominant across the state and beyond.

The Pirate Mascot
A costumed mascot first emerged in 1983.  Known as Pee Dee the Pirate, the University shortened the school symbol's name to just "Pirate" in 1985.  

However  the Pee Dee name reemerged in 2008. Other school mascots representing the school have included a live wildcat and a couple of dogs including a Great Dane.

ecu2Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium
This Pirates lair was first built in 1963 and as the football program has grown, this facility has been expanded several times.

The 2010 expansion increased the stadium's capacity to 50,000.
